The Courtyard Cafe — Restaurant in Newark and Sherwood

Cane today for a spot of lunch and the whole experience was awful! We took a tabls and ordered our food at the counter. Within a fee minutes a young lady gave us a plate with our two sausage rolls on followed five minutes later by a handful of chips in a metal basket and I literally mean a basket of chips with no plate or anything to protect them from the table which had not been wiped! The sausage rolls were luke warm if at all! I waited for my soup but ten minutes later it had not arrived! I asked where it was and was snapped at saying it was probably in the kitchen! The lady then went to check to see what was going in then came back to say that they had not put the order through and did I still want it to which by this time declned as my husband had eaten his lunch as his chips would have gone cold! We were refunded for the soup but didnt really get an apology for our whole lunch experience being spoilt! We then ordered two hot chocolates and when they finally arrived were luke warm as the young chap serving said he had taken it to the wrong table! By thst time we had had enough and got up and left as we were very disappointed! The other thing we noticed were the sausage rolls that were being served were just sitting on top of the counter with no cover over them at all to protect them from flies or people who were standing over them to order! We will give the experience a miss next time we come to...

It was a cool day so we sat inside & it became quieter after 2pm as very busy earlier with people enjoying their lunches. Would be great to sit in the courtyard outside on a...

Adam and his amazing team provided the drinks and the bar at our wedding on Friday at Thoresby and they were amazing! They went above and beyond to cater to my every need (the bride!), and the bar staff were the friendliest most professional bar staff ever. The 2 lovely people on the bar at the end really topped off the perfect day, I can't remember their names but they deserve some sort of bonus or reward for how amazing they were. I had a little cry and got a little overwhelmed and without even asking the lovely lady appeared with an ice cold glass of water which meant so much to me. Thank you so so much! Mr &...
